I'm still a bit short of time and am focussing on: * Getting inlining working in Exupery * Adding closure support to Exupery (the JIT not the interpreter). There's generated source available for the Exupery VMs here: http://ftp.squeak.org/Exupery/vms/ There are pre-built images (the pre-built Exupery images) and the process to build them is automated using Universes. I'll update that to use more modern tools closer to the next Exupery release. For now, I'd suggest using whichever VM works best unless there's some critical problems with both. Bryce

[Pharo-project] improved ScriptLoader

by StÃ©phane Ducasse

hi guys even if I'm not sure that our publishing process is the right one. I improved it a bit. :) When metacello will be ok to manage the core we will happily throw this code. Now ***before*** publishing the packages, the image is saved and a new image to be published is saved with all the dirty packages. This way if the changes do not load during the verification phase you do not have to remerge packages, reload cses.... you can just open the image just saved before the publish/save package phase.

[Pharo-project] MenuMorph help

by StÃ©phane Ducasse

Hi all I want to replace PopUpMenu setMenuFontTo: self menuFont]. by its equivalent in MenuMorph. Does anybody has a magic invocation? I also would like to get rid of PopUpMenu in the following installAsDefault "FontSetNewYork installAsDefault" (self confirm: 'Do you want to install' translated, ' ''' , self fontName , ''' as default font?' translated) ifFalse: [^ self]. self installAsTextStyle. "TextConstants at: #OldDefaultTextStyle put: TextStyle default." TextConstants at: #DefaultTextStyle put: (TextStyle named: self fontName). ListParagraph initialize. "rbb 2/18/2005 13:20 - How should this change for UIManger, if at all?" PopUpMenu initialize. "SelectionMenu notify: 'The old text style has been saved as ''OldDefaultTextStyle''.'"

[Pharo-project] fun with morphic and inheritance

by StÃ©phane Ducasse

Quizz What is the superclass of PopUpChoiceMorph ? the answer is below | | | | | | | | | | | | | . . . . . . . . . V StringMorph.... probably because it has a String displayed. We removed it with luc and noury. But this is just an example of mix between inheritance and composition we would like to avoid in the future
